Haven1,
the
first
EVM
multi-app
blockchain,

a
private
funding
round
with
investments
from Animoca
Brands, KuCoin
Ventures, Taisu
Ventures, Kronos

The

from Uniswap, SNACKCLUB, and Nansen,
and
many
more,
supporting
Haven1’s
mission
as
the
premier
chain
for
DeFi
2.0
and
tokenized
RWAs,
whilst
solving
some
of
the
industry’s
biggest
issues
by
redefining
inefficiencies
in
current
blockchain
infrastructure.

As
a
permissioned
yet
decentralized
chain,
Haven1
has
secured
validator
backing
from
9
of
the
world’s
largest
and
most
recognized
brands,
including AWS, Animoca

of
the
network.
As
a
result,
Haven1
is
poised
to
address
the
inefficiencies
of
current
Layer
1
blockchains
while
offering
an
unparalleled
level
of
security
baked
in
at
the
network
level,
user
experience,
and
value
redistribution
through
its
revolutionary
REKT-resistant
hApp
Store.

“Haven1
is
more
than
just
secure—it’s
the
first
blockchain
to
create
the
ideal
environment
for
DeFi
2.0,
where
liquidity,
efficiency,
safety,
and
user-centric
value
and
protections
come
together
seamlessly,” said Jeff
Owens,
Co-Founder
of
Haven1. “This
funding
will
allow
us
to
accelerate
our
roadmap
and
community,
and
bring
the
multi-app
chain
vision
to
life
in
the
early
part
of
2025.”

Pioneering
a
New
Era
for
Layer
1
Blockchains

As
a
multi-app
chain,
Haven1’s
secure
App
Store
(or
hApp
Store)
has
been
meticulously
designed
to
consolidate
liquidity
across
network-owned
Web3
protocols—including
its
DEX,
lending
market,
perpetuals,
and
NFT
marketplace—alongside
a
growing
ecosystem
of
third-party-developed
hApps,
create
a
seamless
and
efficient
ecosystem.
This
innovative
model
channels
revenue
from
the
most
profitable
hApps
directly
back
to
the
ecosystem,
addressing
the
inefficiencies
that
burden
traditional
Layer
1s.
By
enhancing
liquidity
efficiency
and
reducing
transaction
friction,
Haven1
ensures
that
all
value
generated
flows
back
to
the
network
and
rewards
$H1
token
stakers,
driving
long-term
growth
and
utility.

Backed
by
Industry
Titans

With
over
fifty
ecosystem
developers
and
partners
actively
building
on
Haven1,
the
project
is
just
beginning
to
demonstrate
its
transformative
potential.
During
its
current
public
testnet
phase,
the
platform
has
already
onboarded
more
than 475,000 users
and
processed
over 9
million
transactions,
reinforcing
its
position
as
a
retail-friendly,
enterprise-grade
blockchain
designed
to
lead
the
next
wave
of
Web3
adoption.

Cass
Cai,
Head
of
KuCoin
Ventures added, “Haven1’s
approach
to
building
a
secure
and
multi-functional
blockchain
ecosystem
designed
for
the
needs
of
DeFi
2.0
and
tokenized
RWAs
is
exactly
what
the
industry
needs.
Their
ability
to
combine
innovation
with
a
strong
focus
on
user
protection
positions
them
as
a
leader
in
the
next
wave
of
blockchain
adoption.”

Redefining
Web3
Value

Haven1
goes
beyond
security
with
innovations
like
onchain
2FA,
dual
smart
contract
audits,
and
the
hPassport
(Proof-of-Identity),
making
it
ideal
for
DeFi
2.0
and
tokenized
RWAs
by
ensuring
safe
and
efficient
interactions
for
users.
The
chain’s
ecosystem-first
design
means
that
every
transaction
and
application
interaction
feeds
directly
back
into
supporting
the
network
and
benefiting
$H1
token
holders.

Vincent
Liu,
Chief
Operating
Officer
of
Kronos
Research,
commented, “Haven1’s
ability
to
seamlessly
merge
security,
efficiency,
and
aligned
incentives
makes
it
a
game-changer
in
the
Layer
1
space
particularly
for
DeFi
and
tokenized
RWAs,
which
enable
people
to
engage
in
this
space
long-term
and
achieve
sustainable
growth.
As
a
market
maker
and
investor,
Kronos
Research
is
excited
to
support
Haven1’s
mission
to
build
a
safer,
smarter
blockchain—one

of
creating
a
more
cohesive
and
transparent
crypto
space
for
all
users.”
